Number to Dial vv 03 Variable number between 3 and 43 (decimal count = 2B hex) This parameter
simply sets the telephone number to dial for a given destination.
Byte 1 = destination number. The ID number of the destination to set the
number to dial for. This must be between zero and fifteen decimal,
which is 00 to 0F hex.
Bytes 2 through 42 = telephone number to dial. From zero to forty
characters that represent the telephone number for this destination.
Paging Control 06 05 Controls behavior during the sending of an individual page.
Byte 1 = destination number. The ID number of the destination to set the
session control values for. This must be between zero and fifteen
decimal, which is 00 to 0F hex.
Byte 2 = Response wait. The number of seconds to wait for a response to the
current page being entered. The response will indicate the acceptance
or rejection of the page. This is a value between zero and 255
seconds, with zero being an unwise choice.
Byte 3 = Maximum number of NAKs per page. The number of times a given
block will be retransmitted in response to NAK responses. The NAK
response indicates that the block was received with data transmission
errors, and should be resent.
Please note that, a successful block transmission clears the NAK
count. This means that a transmission error for a block will not
impact the retry counts for a later block. The default is five retries per
NAKed block.
Byte 4 = Minimum number of characters in ID. A subscriber ID number
formatting control parameter. Some types of terminals require at
least a minimum number of characters in the subscriber ID, this
parameter allows the minimum width to be set.
The subscriber will have leading zeros eliminated until it is no longer
than this value, or a non-zero is reached.
The subscriber number will always have at least this many characters
in it, being padded out with leading zeros if needed. Default = 0.
Byte 5 = Maximum number of characters in ID. A subscriber ID number
formatting control parameter. Some TAP input devices will not
accept subscriber ID values with more than a certain number of
digits, even if the leading digits are zeros. This parameter is used to
restrict the maximum number of digits that will sent as a subscriber
ID. If the ID would be longer than the maximum, then leftmost digits
will discarded to fit.
Please note that some TAP input implementations require a fixed
length subscriber ID. This can be done by setting the minimum and
maximum number of digits to the same value. This sets how many
digits the called system requires. The default setting is 0. This causes
trimming of leading zeros.
